College Football Week 14 - Last Chance (For Chaos)
- Thread starter Purple Cheeto
- Start date
NDSU in the I-AA playoffs again. How has no one poached that coach yet? Too old? Weird system? North Dakota gave him all the profits they made from fracking?
Wyoming did after the 2013 season, the current head coach used to be the D-coordinator.
He didn't get fired, he joined Narduzzi on his own.
If that's what you want to believe... Regardless, Ark improved tremendously after he left.
Pitt OC Jim Chaney to UGA as OC according to football scoop. Also, Arkansas OL coach Sam Pittman is taking the same position at UGA.
Anyone familiar with Chaney? Looking up more info now.
Seems like a spread guy with power running game but has become more pro-style recently.
Hiring a Pitt Man and a Pittman at the same time is a bold move UGA.
If that's what you want to believe... Regardless, Ark improved tremendously after he left.
I think Brandon Allen had a lot to do with that though. Like I said, I'm more excited about the OL hire than the OC. I think the OC hire is a good one because he's pro style with some spread, lines up with what Eason wants and the direction Smart wanted to go.
That OL coach has put up some good lines and is apparently well thought of. Should help develop what's there and maybe bring in some other big OL. Need them.
The hires are official as well as Schumann. They're keeping Thomas Brown (RB coach) and Kevin Sherrer (linebackers) as well. So that's 5 assistants on staff as of now.
I think these new coaches might increase the dining hall costs.
Georgia boards do not seem happy at all with this hire.I think Brandon Allen had a lot to do with that though. Like I said, I'm more excited about the OL hire than the OC.

The writers I follow on Twitter are all very happy with it. Georgia boards are a cesspool, especially the Dawgvent if that's what you're talking about. Barrett Sallee at Bleacher Report thinks they're great hires.Georgia boards do not seem happy at all with this hire.
Thing with Chaney is that he's not a flashy hire. Doesn't do flashy offenses. He does do pro-style with some spread, but a huge component of his offenses seems to be ball control, power run plays, and he seems to do okay coaching up some good QB's over the years.
Anybody else watching these FCS games? On the exercise bike and checking them out. These announcers sound asleep.

I was referring to Dawgs247 but watching Pitt seems the offense seemed to be a bit run heavy.
But hey, let's hope that 's all you need to keep Eason! You wouldn't want another Driskel.
It was run heavy at Arky when he was there with the OL coach that's also coming in. They had a pair of 1000 yard rushers. Chaney also had Bray put up 3600 yards and got Crompton drafted in the NFL. Seems like he's able to adapt to the personnel and move the chains in different ways. Time will tell. Can he be worse than Schottenheimer? I don't think that's possible. I think Smart would have fired him mid season.I was referring to Dawgs247 but watching Pitt seems the offense seemed to be a bit run heavy.

Eason from what I'm seeing on Twitter is having a great time. Had a great time with the coeds last night, but I hope they had someone to keep the booze away form him at the bars last night.
I'd still like Patrick Bowles to transfer in and relieve some pressure for Eason to start in the first game against the Tarheels in a big game. Lots of time after that game to get a freshman QB broken in.

This hire just reminds me of Florida hiring Charlie Weis.
You're saying that because he's overweight, right? :jncThis hire just reminds me of Florida hiring Charlie Weis.
I am!Anyone else watching what should have been the FCS National Championship game?
Go Bison!!

Hahaha not at all!
The situation is just all too familiar. Both head coaches are first hear HC and both have hired OCs that some would consider sketchy.
I hope it doesn't turn out that way. You never know with coaching changes which is why some in the past advocated to not make a change. But if they didn't make a change, it seemed likely that UGA may not advance beyond Richt's 9-10 wins. While nothing is sure in a coaching change, they're sending the message that that is not good enough.Hahaha not at all!

Missed a block in the back all the way back around the 5 on Army's punt return.
Army probably needs the help though.

From ESPN's Stephen Smith. Says has sources in Bama locker room. I've seen the opposite mentioned from sources, so I guess we'll see.
Alabama's Scott Cochran will remain as strength and conditioning coach.

Ruffin McNeill (ex East Carolina ) is now a Wahoo!
BYU coaching staff + McNeill+ 1 previous Wahoo coach = YOUR NEW HOOS COACHING STAFF.
Regime change in Charlottesville folks. Lets hope it results in wins on the field.
Wahoowa!!!!

Hope he stays, he pretty clearly does a great job.
No doubt. I hope that he comes and UGA pays whatever it takes. We have his former assistant, Mark Hocke, already but it'd be nice to have the real deal.Hope he stays, he pretty clearly does a great job.

I saw that. Poor misguided soul. At least there's some hope for him. Now if he hated Vernors or Squirt it would definitely be on. Serious words would be had!

This Army-Navy game has been good so far. I recommend that people watch this game and/or educational film.
Agreed. Entertaining.
Something to hold me over til the Warriors game later...then the Steelers tomorrow.
Good weekend of sports (GREAT Hoos news)
Seriously for a program that isn't going to a bowl game the Virginia Cavaliers are having an amazing off season.

You guys have been super slack on starting up a bowl thread. Just saying.
Bowl thread goes up after Army Navy and after the winner of the Pick Em is announced.
WOOOOO

Congrats man
The ACC have gotten a disgusting amount of upgrades this offseason, particularly the Coastal.
Makes me sick.
:jnc
could have ran there
Reynolds doesn't really do much running. More of a pocket guy I think.

He's run for 1000 yards 3 years in a row.

Navy defense came out on top.
They've said they'll delay the selection if needed. It wasn't needed after navy lost to Houston.Stupid play call
Anyway why is this game after the playoff selection? What if one team is undefeated and in the playoff and then they lose?

Tradition. And contracts. One of the few traditions retained after all of the shuffling and rise of TV contracts.
But I think CBS has a relatively long-term deal for the game. And Army/Navy has always been the last game of the season, IIRC.

Almost pulled a Michigan there.

Ah okay that make sense.
